HÀ NỘI — The Đào Thiên Hải Chess Open will take place on October 20-21 in HCM City.

Young participants will compete in groups aged from 6-11, and have a chance to meet national champion Nguyễn Anh Khôi, 16, who helped Việt Nam’s men’s team rank seventh out of 185 teams at the recent Batumi Chess Olympiad in Georgia.

Participants will also have a chance to compete with veterans Lê Minh Hoàng, Nguyễn Quốc Hy, Lê Hữu Thái and Nguyễn Thị Mai Hưng.

The event is a warm-up for Việt Nam to compete at the World Age Group Chess Championship in Spain later this year. — VNS
